6 weeks a go I started a diet. I was 226 at 19% fat.
I am right now 218 at 11.8% fat.

Before Lean weight=183.1
After lean weight=192.3
I gained 9.2 lbs of muscle.

But in my pictures I look the same. Do you think once I hit 7-8% then it will show?

Steel..you probably cant notice it but other people will be able to notice it. You look at yourself everyday so its hard to tell. The best way would be to take pictures before, then after and youll definitly be able to tell

Steel, did you do that naturally, or did you add something special to old BP's body for life routine?

Nope! This was all natural. I think I grew out of the steroid saga. I have been clean for 5-6 monthes.

But I did make a mistake...this all happened in 4 weeks not 6. Another 8 weeks to this diet and Ill post before and after pictures. I hope to weigh 210 @ 6-7 %. If I go lower in weight that will be okay as long as I grow or keep my muscles.
